Expert Insights
Back in 2018, Santa Rosa’s Sonoma County Sheriff’s Department took notice of a new deadly drug hitting the streets and almost immediately claiming lives: fentanyl.
In a matter of weeks after fentanyl’s appearance in Santa Rosa, the Sheriff’s Department began obtaining mass quantities of Naloxone (narcan), also known as the anti-overdose drug and training officers on administration. Fast forward to 2023, the entire department is staffed with officers who are proficient in the administration of Naloxone.
Fatal opioid overdoses in the city more than doubled last year, which makes Naloxone, quite literally, a life-saving tool at every officer’s disposal.
